To add code with syntax highlighting to PowerPoint slides: 1. Write code in Visual Studio Code. 2. Copy & paste into Word 3. Copy & paste into PowerPoint. The 2nd step is necessary to preserve indentation. Anybody have a better method?

"Oh by the way... is this accessible?" is not the right conversation to have with a software vendor after you've already signed a contract. #a11y

Excited for Global Accessibility Awareness Day (#GAAD) at University of Washington. Take the IT Accessibility Challenge (20 Tasks in 2020!) Then attend any of our #GAAD2020 trainings to get started. #uwa11y bit.ly/2WHy8VP

Brief intermission during Global Accessibility Awareness Day (#GAAD) at University of Washington. If you're at the UW, come join us at 1:00 for afternoon sessions on accessibility of websites, Canvas courses, and documents bit.ly/2XhlFaL #GAAD2020 #uwa11y

Blown away by how many trainings, activities and events occurred yesterday in support of #GAAD and #GAAD2020. You all deserve #conGAADulations! (can't believe I'm the first to use that hash tag!)

Must be conference season! #heweb20 last week. #edu20 this week. Next up: #ahg20, hands-down the best conference focused on #a11y in #highered. bit.ly/3oz0JZH

Did #CSUNATC21 speakers receive instructions on how to connect to their recording sessions? Lucy Greco and are standing by to record our session on Accessibility of Online Conferences, but we don't seem to have ever received a Zoom URL.

Today's the day I'm presenting at #SIGCSE2021 ("Welcoming Students with Disabilities in Online Computer Science Education") while also attending #AxeCon and #CSUNATC21. Wouldn't be able to pull this off if we weren't virtual.

Anyone at #edu21 have a spare power adapter for a 15 “ MacBook Pro (USB C connector)? It’s been so long since I traveled I forgot how to pack. I need to borrow one through Thursday night or Friday morning. I’ll gladly trade a free IT accessibility consult.

I'm *not* hosting my Accessible NCAA Tournament Bracket this year, but hosting Men's and Women's groups on the #Yahoo Tourney Pick'em site. Yahoo has made progress on #a11y and has expressed a commitment to continue improving. Details on my blog: terrillthompson.com/1545
